Crochet angel heart baby blanket

Crochet angel heart baby blanket

last year I designed the Angel heart granny square – a slanted winged heart on a solid granny square. I wanted to make a granny square baby blanket but had no time to finish it. Therefore, untill now, I have been able to post this crochet project xD

It’s a reversible crochet baby blanket, flying hearts on the front side and colorful dots on the back side.

Note: I used chainless starting dc/tr for every first dc/tr of each round instead of ch 3/ch 4. There’s another good crochet technique to use is ch 2/ch 3, dc/tr into same stitch ( counted as 1st dc/tr ). In the pattern below you’ll see I simply state dc/tr for every first dc/tr of each round, so just choose your best technique 🙂

You can use any hook size for this crochet angel heart baby blanket pattern, just choose a yarn type that matches.

This is type of scrap yarn crochet project, fun and colorful. I also modified the square pattern a bit to have a straight flying heart on the square.

R1: Insert hook into the 3rd back loop from last st of R1 ( the heart part). Crochet 2 dc into every loop, sl into first st to join, total 24 sts.

R2: 1 tr and 1 dc into same st, 4 dc across, 1 dc and 1 tr into next st, ch 2, *1 tr and 1 dc into next st, 4 dc across, 1 dc and 1 tr into next st, ch 2* repeat ** 3 times, sl into first st to join.
Now every ch 2 at the corners is a ch2-space.

Crochet 9 squares with different color themes, now it’s time to join them. There are many ways to join crochet motifs, and you can pick any method you want.

As these are solid crochet squares, I decided to use double crochet-2 together seams method which would add one more row to the motifs. Then crochet border around with double crochet, too ( using color B yarn- 2dc, ch2, 2dc into each corner ).

After all, time for crochet edging.

With color B yarn, continue from the last stitch of the border round.

R1: ( dc, skip 1 st, dc into next stitch ) repeat around the blanket, sl into first st to join.

R2: sc into 1st stitch, skip next ch1-space, 5 dc- shell stitch into next stitch, skip next ch1-space, ( sc into next stitch, 5 dc- shell stitch into next stitch, skip next ch1-space ) repeat around the blanket, sl into first st to join. ( fasten off, weave in ends )
